Give me a fucking break. The fictional plot takes place in Africa. The villagers are being killed because they are attacking Redfield. Kill or be killed situation. I hate when people look for a reason to pull the race card. His imagery argument is way out of context with the actual game.

Discuss?

    Yeah, it's dumb.

    In fact, it's really dumb. People need to lighten up.

    If this were the first game in the series, i could maybe, MAYBE see this.....but seriously, talk about picking a fight, or being overly sensitive.

    Now i'm not saying I know what it's like, and maybe I wouldnt feel the same way if I had African heritage, but who knows.

    The world is just to politically correct these days. It's really stupid. I mean he's in these small villages in Africa. What do the people want him to be fighting Europeans in business suits? It just seems like such a waste of time for people to get bent out of shape about it. It's just a game. I hate how nice nice everything has to be now.

    Absolutely.

    To the cases of those with African heritage or personally enslaved or discriminated against (not related to someone who was), I still fail to see how they can view it as "the white man" enslaving Africans or some kind of glorified genocide.

    here's an example, I remember when I used to play baseball when I was a kid and the top 3 teams out of like 10 at the end of the season got trophies. Now even the teams in last place get them. We wouldn't wanna hurt little johnny's feelings now would we? WTF is this world coming to? :?

    Zombies don't see color anyways, so I don't know what the big deal is.

    Black, white, Asian...doesn't matter. If I'm surrounded by zombies, they will all die! :D

    Society is in dire need of a fucking reboot. I'm going to go live in the forest.

    I think people have it all wrong. All the black zombies are trying to kill the only white guy around for miles. How much more racist can you get?! I see hidden messages that blacks are superior to whites in this game! I am deeply and irreversibly offended!!!

    Are you saying Jewish zombies have more of a right to live?

    That's right! Mob mentality going after poor whitey! LOL :D Throw that race card right back at 'em! :D



    Oh, and no. I suppose the only zombies you'd have to not be worried about would be the female zombies.
    I mean really... what are they going to do? Hahahaha!

    Incidentially, this game kicks some serious ass.

    They could've thrown in some white missionaries.

    Well one might be able to persuade them to have sex. That would make for an interesting cut scene. What would the term for one who enjoys sex with a zombie be? Zombifiliac?

    So far I've come across one white lady zombie, so they've got white and female covered too.

    I just got two games, so I may have to wait a bit to check RE5 out.

    Ahhhh, right on. So you bought another 360? What are you going to do with your old one?
    Oh and the new one seems kinda..."bright". hahaha! Pretty cool though.

    The new one is just red. I should get a Ferrari logo for it.
    I will sell the old one, most likely.

    What about the zombies???? Aren't they getting a bad rap? Someone needs to call the Z-double A-C-P.

    I'm not sure. I am hoping to get $150 for it but I have to look around to see what everyone else is asking.
    You in the market for one?
  • mca47mca47 Posts: 13,301
    I don't know if I'm in the "market" for one, but if I can land a sweet deal then maybe.
